Definitions

  • Ocular hypotensive agents are useful in the treatment of a number of various ocular hypertensive conditions, such as post-surgical and post-laser trabeculectomy ocular hypertensive episodes, glaucoma, and as presurgical adjuncts.
  • Glaucoma is a disease of the eye characterized by increased intraocular pressure. On the basis of its etiology, glaucoma has been classified as primary or secondary. For example, primary glaucoma in adults (congenital glaucoma) may be either open-angle or acute or chronic angle-closure. Secondary glaucoma results from pre-existing ocular diseases such as uveitis, intraocular tumor or an enlarged cataract.
  • the underlying causes of primary glaucoma are not yet known.
  • the increased intraocular tension is due to the obstruction of aqueous humor outflow.
  • chronic open-angle glaucoma the anterior chamber and its anatomic structures appear normal, but drainage of the aqueous humor is impeded.
  • acute or chronic angle-closure glaucoma the anterior chamber is shallow, the filtration angle is narrowed, and the iris may obstruct the trabecular meshwork at the entrance of the canal of Schlemm. Dilation of the pupil may push the root of the iris forward against the angle, and may produce pupilary block and thus precipitate an acute attack. Eyes with narrow anterior chamber angles are predisposed to acute angle-closure glaucoma attacks of various degrees of severity.
  • Secondary glaucoma is caused by any interference with the flow of aqueous humor from the posterior chamber into the anterior chamber and subsequently, into the canal of Schlemm.
  • Inflammatory disease of the anterior segment may prevent aqueous escape by causing complete posterior synechia in iris bombe, and may plug the drainage channel with exudates.
  • Other common causes are intraocular tumors, enlarged cataracts, central retinal vein occlusion, trauma to the eye, operative procedures and intraocular hemorrhage.
  • glaucoma occurs in about 2% of all persons over the age of 40 and may be asymptotic for years before progressing to rapid loss of vision.
  • topical ⁇ -adrenoreceptor antagonists have traditionally been the drugs of choice for treating glaucoma.
  • Eicosanoids and their derivatives are currently commercially available for use in glaucoma management.
  • Eicosanoids and derivatives include numerous biologically important compounds such as prostaglandins and their derivatives.
  • Prostaglandins can be described as derivatives of prostanoic acid which have the following structural formula:
  • prostaglandins are known, depending on the structure and substituents carried on the alicyclic ring of the prostanoic acid skeleton. Further classification is based on the number of unsaturated bonds in the side chain indicated by numerical subscripts after the generic type of prostaglandin [e.g. prostaglandin E 1 (PGE 1 ), prostaglandin E 2 (PGE 2 )], and on the configuration of the substituents on the alicyclic ring indicated by ⁇ or ⁇ [e.g. prostaglandin F 2 ⁇ (PGF 2 ⁇ )].
  • PGE 1 prostaglandin E 1
  • PGE 2 prostaglandin E 2
  • PPF 2 ⁇ prostaglandin F 2 ⁇
  • Y is CO 2 H or CH 2 OH
  • R 3 is a C 3 alkyl. In a certain embodiment, R 3 is isopropyl.
  • R 3 is hydroxyethyl
  • R 3 is —CH 2 CH 2 —N(R 4 ) 2 . In a certain embodiment, R 3 is —CH 2 CH 2 —N(Et) 2 .
  • the compound is incorporated into a dosage form or a medicament and administered to the mammal, such as a person, in need thereof.
  • a liquid composition may be administered as an eye drop or a solid or liquid dosage form may also be administered orally.
  • Other types of dosage forms and medicaments are well known in the art, and may also be used.
  • compositions comprising a compound disclosed herein, wherein said composition is a liquid which is ophthalmically acceptable.
  • Another embodiment is a medicament comprising a compound disclosed herein, wherein said medicament is a liquid which is ophthalmically acceptable.
  • Another embodiment is a method comprising administering a compound disclosed herein to a mammal for the treatment of glaucoma or elevated intraocular pressure.
  • kits comprising a composition comprising compound disclosed herein, a container, and instructions for administration of said composition to a mammal for the treatment of glaucoma or elevated intraocular pressure.
  • treat refers to the use of a compound, composition, therapeutically active agent, or drug in the diagnosis, cure, mitigation, treatment, or prevention of disease or other undesirable condition.
  • reference to a compound should be construed broadly to include pharmaceutically acceptable salts, prodrugs, tautomers, alternate solid forms, non-covalent complexes, and combinations thereof, of a chemical entity of the depicted structure or chemical name.
  • a pharmaceutically acceptable salt is any salt of the parent compound that is suitable for administration to an animal or human.
  • a pharmaceutically acceptable salt also refers to any salt which may form in vivo as a result of administration of an acid, another salt, or a prodrug which is converted into an acid or salt.
  • a salt comprises one or more ionic forms of the compound, such as a conjugate acid or base, associated with one or more corresponding counter-ions. Salts can form from or incorporate one or more deprotonated acidic groups (e.g. carboxylic acids), one or more protonated basic groups (e.g. amines), or both (e.g. zwitterions).
  • a prodrug is a compound which is converted to a therapeutically active compound after administration. For example, conversion may occur by hydrolysis of an ester group or some other biologically labile group.
  • Prodrug preparation is well known in the art. For example, “Prodrugs and Drug Delivery Systems,” which is a chapter in Richard B. Silverman, Organic Chemistry of Drug Design and Drug Action, 2d Ed., Elsevier Academic Press: Amsterdam, 2004, pp. 496-557, provides further detail on the subject.
  • Tautomers are isomers that are in rapid equilibrium with one another.
  • tautomers may be related by transfer of a proton, hydrogen atom, or hydride ion.
  • Alternate solid forms are different solid forms than those that may result from practicing the procedures described herein.
  • alternate solid forms may be polymorphs, different kinds of amorphous solid forms, glasses, and the like.
  • Non-covalent complexes are complexes that may form between the compound and one or more additional chemical species that do not involve a covalent bonding interaction between the compound and the additional chemical species. They may or may not have a specific ratio between the compound and the additional chemical species. Examples might include solvates, hydrates, charge transfer complexes, and the like.
  • composition and dosage regimen of example 1 was also tested in laser-induced hypertensive monkeys, using one single day dose. At 0.01%, the maximum IOP decrease from baseline was 13.9 mmHg (40%) at 24 h.
  • composition and dosage regimen of example 1 may also be used to reduce IOP in humans.
  • the composition of Example 4 may be used to reduce IOP in a person by administering the composition once a day to the person.
  • the maximum intraocular pressure (IOP) decrease from baseline was 5.6 mmHg (36%) at 54 h; the maximum ocular surface hyperemia (OSH) score was 1.75 at 50 h.
  • the maximum intraocular pressure (IOP) decrease from baseline was 3.6 mmHg (24%) at 76 h; the maximum ocular surface hyperemia (OSH) score was 0.8 at 74 h.
